Teaching postion

Max's face was flushed red as he quickly explained

"Annabel and I are just friends!"

Mercury smile widened slightly before he clapped Max on the shoulder and asked

"You haven't thought of her in that light?"

"N-No!"

Mercury nodded before he switched topics

"What about the academy? How are your studies going?"

Max appreciated Mercury's tact and began speaking about the academy, after a bit Mercury asked

"Why don't we go there now? You could show me around"

Max nodded

"Sure"

After quickly getting a carriage the two of them left for the academy where they soon arrived, Mercury looked around with amazement and after a bit, he nodded

"This sure does feel like a noble academy"

Max nodded and agreed with Mercury

"Í had the same feeling when I first arrived here"
